(Verse 1) I've walked against the wind so long, I've lost the sense of ease Each step I take, the world conspires to bring me to my knees But still I never stopped, I never turned and walked away I gave until my hands were empty — nothing seemed to stay
(Verse 2) I gave my love, my softness, every tool within my chest Too intense, too real, too much — they put me to the test I tried to build a life, a place where I could finally stand Laid each brick with trembling hope, but lost it from my hand
(Pre-Chorus) And just when I believed the ground would finally hold me tight Another piece was taken in the quiet of the night I watched the corners crumble that I'd carefully set in place Left standing in the ruins with the rubble I still chase
(Chorus) But I'm still here — still standing where it all fell through Still holding what is left of every dream I thought I knew Still loving, still rebuilding from the dust beneath my shoes Maybe I was never too much — Maybe I was just too much for the ones I tried to choose The ones who couldn't hold me, so I lose
(Verse 3) I poured myself into foundations built on hollow ground Gave everything I had to walls that only let me down One by one they disappeared, the pillars I had made Left me wondering why nothing that I build is built to stay
(Bridge) But what if I was never broken — what if I was just a tide? A force that needs a shoreline that can let it rise and ride I gave and gave until there was no proof left to defend Maybe I was never too much — I was just too much for a love that couldn't bend A love that couldn't hold me in the end
(Final Chorus) 'Cause I'm still here — still standing where it all fell through Still holding what is left of every dream I thought I knew Still loving, still rebuilding, making something out of blue Maybe I was never too much — Maybe I was just too much for the ones I tried to choose The ones who couldn't hold me, so I lose
(Outro) So I lose But I still choose To love again To build again To be too much For hands that can Finally hold me Finally hold me I was never too much I just gave to those who couldn't hold me
